What is a virtual server?
Virtual Private Server (VPS) is a virtualized part of a physical server that operates as a separate dedicated server.
Virtual servers allow you to share the resources of a physical server among several virtual servers, each of which has its own operating system, applications and configurations.
Advantages of use:
-
Resource isolation: Each virtual server has its own dedicated resources such as CPU time, memory and disk space, which provides more reliable operation and prevents other virtual servers from interfering with yours.
-
Flexibility and scalability: you can easily increase or decrease the resources of your virtual server depending on the needs of your project.
-
Savings: Using virtual servers is usually more economical than renting a dedicated physical server, since you only pay for the resources you use.
-
Management and control: You have full access to administrative rights and can customize it as you wish.
In general, virtual servers are an excellent solution for many online projects, providing flexibility, reliability and resource savings.
